THE NEW SOUTH.


The speech of Henry.W. Grady, editor
OF the Atlanta Constitution, in "The New
South" delivered at the dinner Of the
New England Society OF New York, has
made him National reputation. 1t was
the greatest hit OF the times. When he
arose to deliver his speech he looked
upon the faces OF over 300 strangers. He
was the first Southerner to speak at
dinner OF the Society since the war, and
before him were men whose names are
the synonyms otlegal acumen, culture and
wealth. General Sherman and Dr. Tai
mage had preceded him with speeches
highly eulogistic OF the North. His text
was the words OF Benjamin III. Hill,
spoken at Tammany Hall, in 1886. There
was South of secession and slavery that
South is dead. There is South OF union
and freedom that South is living, breath
ing, growing every hour" He hadn't
said six lines before the assemblage broke
out in a storm of cheers. Early in his
speech he said OF Abraham Lincoln:
"He was the sum OF Puritan and Cava-
lier, for in his ardent nature were fused
the virtues OF both, and in the depths Of
his great soul, the faults OF both were
lost. He was greater than Puritan,
greater than Cavalier in that he was
American, and that in his homely forms
were gathered the vast and thrilling
forces of his ideal government, charging
it with such tremendous meaning and so
elevating it above human suffering that
martyrdom, though UNANIMOUSLY aimed j,
came as fitting crown to life conse-
Grated from the cradle to human liber-
ty." When he had concluded this glow
ing tribute to the memory of the martyred
President, a mighty shout went up, and
when he said: "Dear to me are the
home OF my childhood and the traditions
OF my people," the applause of the New
Englanders must have caused raptllr-
Gus thrill in his heart as it brought a
happy smile to his face and added bright
ness to his eyes. We regret that the
DEMoCRAT's limited space will not per-
NIT us to give the speech in full. His
peroration was listened to in a silence
which betokened the intense interest of
his hearers, and in closing, when he
asked the New Englanders if the North
would permit the prejudice OF war to re-
main in the hearts of the conquerors
when it had died in the hearts OF the
conquered, the 800 throats thundered a
"No" that might have been heard q
mile away. When he sat down, cloud
of napkins assembled over the heads of the
diners as they cheered him, the band
whooped up ''Dixie," and Mr.. Grady was
unanimously voted rattling good fellow.
1t was great speech for the occasion,
but not without art, which was all the
more potent because so we'll concealed E.
At the start he captured the audience
with Lincoln, and then had it all his own
way. The new South, which he so well
represents, may be sure of just such a
reception from the North as he received
from the New Englanders.
